Soleilwear Women’s Heated Vest with 9 Zones, Water-Resistant Fabric and 10-Hour Low Setting

A nylon-and-polyester outer gives this Soleilwear women’s heated vest a lightweight layer for indoor and outdoor wear. Its water-resistant, windproof fabric and soft down-cotton padding add practical coverage for work, hiking, cycling and other activities.

Nine carbon-fibre heating zones cover the collar, chest, pockets and back, helping distribute warmth across the areas the vest is designed to heat.

Choose from three heat settings with one-button control. The included 10,000mAh power bank supports up to 10 hours on low, giving you adjustable warmth for changing plans and activity levels.

One-button control selects from three settings, with listed temperatures of 104°F, 122°F and 140°F. Two zippered pockets provide space for small essentials, and an inside pocket holds the power bank.

Unlike a standard insulated vest, this design lets you select a heat setting at the push of a button. The water-resistant, windproof outer and lightweight construction make it a useful layer for outdoor tasks as well as indoor wear when you want warmth from a vest rather than a bulkier jacket.

Requirements

The vest runs on the included 5V / 10,000mAh power bank. The package also includes a 30cm charging cable and a user manual. The power bank sits in the inside pocket, keeping it stored within the vest while you wear it. Select low, medium or high with the one-button control to match the warmth setting to your activity.

Getting the most from it

For a walk, bike ride or outdoor work session, the vest’s coverage across the collar, chest, pockets and back offers heated support in the areas named in its design. Low provides the longest listed runtime, medium and high offer shorter runtimes, so the setting can be chosen according to the outing and desired warmth. The range of settings also makes the vest practical for moving between indoor and outdoor spaces.

The vest is described as machine washable and suitable for 50 washing and drying cycles. Buyers highlight its warmth and functionality, while comments on battery life are mixed. The listed runtimes provide a useful reference when choosing a heat level for the day.
